Nikkis2000 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks Porty. We didn't get them in the park in Basildon!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portlaunay Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Thanks Porty. We didn't get them in the park in Basildon!! Quite. From I remember, Langdon Hills and One Tree Hill, though beautiful, were not particularly exotic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikkis2000 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Exotic and Basildon are two words that will never belong in a sentence together!! Well unless it is to describe a certain kind of club ;0) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJT Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 And its def. the sort of club you don't want to go to, not from my experience of Basildon any way!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portlaunay Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Clearly I've been away a long time, I have no idea what you're talking about but I have a vivid imagination Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJT Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 (edited) Basildon now has its own version of "Las Vegas" but its known as Bas Vegas, a very dodgy place to go over dark!!!! Edited February 7, 2014 by SJT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikkis2000 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 And it's about as classy as it sounds!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jo and scott Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Hey you lot having a go at Basildon !! It's my birthday this month, was looking forward to a cheesy girls night out in baz Vegas lol !! ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikkis2000 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I'm allowed - I worked there for 10 years!! Where are you off to - can't beat a bit of cheese every now and again ;0) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJT Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I was born and bred there too but have to say I really don't miss it one little bit. I have to say there seems to be a few that have left Bas/Chelms way recently. So Jo which club are you hitting Sat night. I do miss Aroma though.

portlaunay Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Hey you lot having a go at Basildon !! It's my birthday this month, was looking forward to a cheesy girls night out in baz Vegas lol !! ;-) Sounds great, where's our invites? (Can men come too?) Anyway, since when was Rochford protective or sensitive about Basildon? You got your own heap of problems darlin' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jo and scott Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I used to love going to baz Vegas when I was younger but it's not somewhere I would go now. But it is my birthday soon and I do fancy a few drinks and a boogie :-) my friends have said if this is your last birthday in England then we are going to make it a good one !! I don't even know what the clubs are called now, used to be jumpin jacks and ikon diva. And yes you are all invited ;-) x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nikkis2000 Posted February 7, 2014 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 There's definitely a Chicago's!!! Agree that Aroma is still a fave. Failing that there's an Italian now too. Think the club is Liquid but have never been! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
portlaunay Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 The only places I remember were (I think), called Hollywood in Sarfend and another that was maybe Monroe's on the seafront? That might be completely wrong though I'm sure it had something to do with Marilyn but I guess it could easily have been called 'JFK's' or 'Norma's' etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
